Not sure what you were expecting... it's only been a little over an hour. This ain't facebook. I was considering checking my parts drawer at home, I might have one.

If you have a "white" one (with raised black lettering), you can "reverse" it pretty easily. Just spray it with black rattle-can paint and carefully sand the black paint (both your's and the factory paint) off the top of the raised lettering. :D

Thank you Paul :) I’d rather keep my white one just in case I’d like to put it back to stock

Keeping the old one will end up costing you, because black replacements are usually $150.00+.
